A chili cook off raises fun and funds

Chili seems like more of a fall or winter dish to me, but real chili lovers look for the good stuff all year-round. That's why the Optimist Club of Bellevue East-Town, Wisconsin has planned a Chili Cook Off for this weekend.

The annual event is both a community picnic and a fundraiser for the club's many youth-serving projects. It will take place at Josten Park, Sunday, August 29, 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

The Optimist Club has been serving up the area's best chili, music, children's games and fun at the community picnic and chili cook off for 27 years.

Find out more at the Village of Bellevue, Wisconsin website.
